About the Museum

Thank you for visiting the Wisconsin Veterans Museum Website. Through our award-winning exhibits and programs, the Wisconsin Veterans Museum, a Smithsonian Affiliate since 2013, honors and affirms the role of Wisconsin veterans in shaping our nation’s history.

Our website is your guide to our resources, introducing you to the many ways we connect people to Wisconsin’s military past and present. I hope that you find the site helpful and that you discover something new during your visit.
